I can't figure it out. I was just looking at my previous articles and looking at the number of comments for each. There seems to be no rhyme or reason. The things I thought were amazing garnered pathetic comments quantities. The things I considered to be frivolous garnered popularity.
Click my name and look at my articles and subsequent comment numbers and tell me I'm wrong. If I'm wrong make me understand. Please.
There are so many not funny Soviet era jokes.

It "was' a farmer and a raven.
But how is that relevant to this thread?
But you can determine a lot from the quality of the posters that do respond.
Take this thread for instance. The only ones that responded are the low-rent, ne'r-do-wells that people say brings down the quality of Free Republic.
Like me, for example.

Old joke about a guy that goes to prison for the first time:
After lights out, someone yells “37”! Everybody cracks up.
Others are yelling numbers and everyone was rollicking.
The next morning he asks his cellmate “What happened last night after lights out?”
His cellmate says: “We only have one joke book in the whole barracks. So, we each memorize the jokes and their respective numbers. Instead of telling the whole joke, we just call out its number!”
So, the newby finally gets the book and memorizes it. He’s ready!
After lights out it starts again. He decides it’s time for him!
He yells out his favorite “48”!! No body laughs. The barracks are still and dark........ Then someone yells another number and everyone is laughing uproariously!
So, the next morning he is really down, and asks “What happened last night?”
His cellmate says...............
“You just didn’t know how to tell it!”
I’m not saying that’s your problem. Just thought you might enjoy the joke. Hope all goes well. Me. I just lurk.
How is anything relevant to this thread? We're butchering Soviet era Estonian jokes. We've had everything but a dead parrot Monty Python sketch.
It's the end of the world as we know it.
I feel fine.

Classy comeback, Auntie Mame.
I can’t imagine *why* you can’t get a real life woman...or smart dog.
you funny long time ;-)
One of the oldest jokes I know, except it ends with a “Shhh, not in front of the ladies!”
I had an idea to number the lame cliche responses on FR, such as “put away that pipe”, or “forgot to take your medicine?”, etc.
You just can’t go wrong with an Ed Wood snark.
;]
As I understand it, if you’ve seen one, you’ve seen ‘em both!
What? This thread was teetering on the edge from the git-go.
Soooo...if we can can give it a push and it disappears forever down a foxhole, couldn't it be said that the people who responded were really TRYING TO IMPROVE the quality of Free Republic?????
Kinda like an Artical of Faith...
I’m celibate, too! Just ask my wife!
Did you really have to go and remind him of that annoying habit? I was hoping he'd finally broken it.
Ummm...she isn't....
Sounds kinky. You first!
Keep on imagining and maybe I’ll go to the trouble of training you some day. If you appear worthy of the effort.
Worked for me!
